=== CLex (Dictionary Engine) ===
WHAT IT IS
CLex is a multilingual dictionary engine. Notably it supports Chinese/Japanese
and other script systems. There is a built-in memo so that you can put a new
word in the memo for your later peruse. You can also look up a word online by
selecting the word or simply place the cursor under the word you want to look
up. A TapBar button is also included so that you can have access to CLex
almost everywhere at any time.
WHAT YOU NEED
A Newton with NOS2.0 or further. At least a set of Japanese/Chinese font in
unicode format if you want to use Japanese or Chinese dictionary (You can find
one on my homepage -- Freeware.) The dictionary data can be found in Info-Mac
and on my homepage.
To use the TapBar button, you have to get Yosuke "Basuke" Suzuki's TapBar
Program from his homepage.

=== EDICT (Japanese-English Dictionary) ===
WHAT IT IS
JEDict is a Japanese-English dictionary (EDICT) module for CLex. I only ported
the freely available data to Newton and DO NOT claim any copyright of the
original data. Owing to the internal coding system of Newton and data
compression issues, I have to pack the data into a usual Newton package. I
want to thank Mr. Jim Breen for his allowing me to do the porting job. Please
read the attached original document for detail. The original data can be
ftp-ed from ftp://ftp.monash.edu.au/pub/nihongo/.
JEDict is a Romaji indexed Japanese-English dictionary. You should follow the
usual Hepburn transcription to look up Japanese words. The only exception is
that the long vowel is retained with corresponding 'a','u', and 'o'.
